I just got a brand new Olympus xD Picture Card (M 2GB) for my Olympus D-390 Camedia Digital Camera. When I turn it on, the 'Card Setup" screen comes up. When I try to format the card, I inevitably end up at a screen that says, " ! Card Error "
Help!?!?!?!

Lens error I tried to turn off my camera, (Digital Ixus 60) and the lens froze halfway closed. When I tried to restart the camera, an error comes up on the screen, saying LENS ERROR, RESTART CAMERA.
